Laugh it up, fuzzball: Harrison Ford reunited with Star Wars co-pilot Chewbacca... but launches attack on his old friend

By GEORGINA LITTLEJOHN

What are you doing here? Harrison Ford launches a verbal attack on old friend and Star Wars co-star Chewbacca as he shouts at him for sleeping with his wife

Every Star Wars fan worth their salt knows only too well from C3PO's warning, that it's 'not wise' to upset a Wookie.

But clearly it's advice that Chewbacca's former co-pilot Han Solo wasn't worried about following as he launched into a verbal attack on his old friend - and for good reason.

Actor Harrison Ford, who played the Millennium Falcon's pilot, didn't look too happy to see the Wookie as they were reunited on TV last night.



What the hell? Harrison is getting his make-up done for a TV appearance when Chewie appears at the door


Despite fighting battles side-by-side against the Galactic Empire a long time ago in a galaxy far far away, their friendship came to an abrupt end once the bad guys were defeated and the cameras stopped rolling - because Chewie slept with his wife.

Ford, 69, was seen getting his hair and make-up done before a guest appearance on TV chat show Jimmy Kimmel when there's a knock at the door and Chewbacca walks in to say hello to his old friend.


You've got some nerve! Chewie growls in protest at Ford's accusations


But his appearance does not go down well with Ford who stomps over to the Wookie and launches into an angry verbal attack on his former sidekick.

He snaps: 'What are you doing here, you son of a b****? Cut the s***, you think you can walk in here and say you're sorry after what you did?'


Never come back! Ford angrily shoves the Wookie out of his dressing room


You betrayed me! Ford screams after Chewie as he berates him for sleeping with his wife

As Chewie growls his protests, Ford continues: 'I'm done with that Star Wars crap and I'm done with you. I'm in Cowboys & Aliens. Daniel Craig's my Wookie b**** now.'

He then shouts, 'Out. Get out!' as he shoves the sorry Wookie out the door.

He screams after him: 'She was my wife! She's still spitting up hairballs!'


Ford (R) and Chewie alongside Ben Kenobi (the late Sir Alec Guinness) and Luke Skywalker (Mark Hamill) in Star Wars: A New Hope


Of course, before Star Wars fans clutch their chests in horror that two old friends have become enemies, it was a sketch done in jest for the Jimmy Kimmel Show.

Ford was a guest on the show to promote his new movie Cowboys and Aliens and thought he would have a bit of fun while he was there.


Old friends: Ford and Peter Mayhew who played the original Chewbacca

Ford starred alongside the 'walking carpet' - who was played by Peter Mayhew - not in the sketch - in the films, from Star Wars; A New Hope in 1977 to Return of the Jedi in 1983.

They have become movie legends and the idols of many a small boy as they put the Falcon into hyperdrive and flew the galaxy at light speed.

Ford is currently starring alongside Daniel Craig in Cowboys and Aliens, a western with an extraterrestrial twist, which is released in the UK on August 17.

Now that's dedicated support! Miley Cyrus gets her SEVENTH tattoo... an inking on her finger in recognition of gay rights

By DAILY MAIL REPORTER

Dedicated support: Miley Cyrus has got her seventh tattoo, this time in support of gay rights

Most people who promote a cause might usually do some volunteer work or perhaps donate some money.

But singer Miley Cyrus has taken one step further in showing her support for gay rights, by getting a new tattoo.

The 18-year-old got inked for the SEVENTH time, showing off the new design on her finger via her Twitter account.


Show cause: The singer got the 'equal' symbol etched on her middle finger, writing on Twitter: 'All LOVE is equal' in reference to a campaign was launched by the Gay & Lesbian Rights Lobby


The singer got the 'equal' symbol permanently etched on her middle finger, writing on Twitter: 'All LOVE is equal'.

It appears that Miley is referring to The All Love is Equal campaign launched by the Gay & Lesbian Rights Lobby.

Miley has been very vocal on gay rights in the past.

Earlier this month, when Casey Anthony was infamously acquitted for the murder of her daughter Caylee, Miley tweeted: You know the world is skewed when people get away with murdering children, but we cant get gay marriage legalized in the state of California.'


More ink: Just over two months ago she picked up her sixth tattoo, an anchor design whilst on her Gypsy Hearts tour in Brazil



With love: Miley also has an outline of a love heart on her pinky




Spiritual: Miley has a dream catcher on the right side of her ribcage, which she acquired earlier this year


Recently a leaked photograph of the singer getting her dream catcher tattoo done leaked online.

The photograph shows a topless Miley lying down and clutching a shirt to her chest to cover her modesty.

Moving on already? Jennifer Lopez steps out with hunky new man... as they shoot scenes for new film

By DAILY MAIL REPORTER

New man on the scene: Jennifer Lopez steps out with Rodrigo Santoro as the pair film scenes from What to Expect When You're Expecting

She announced she was splitting from her husband Marc Anthony less than two weeks ago but Jennifer Lopez has already been pictured with a hunky other man.

The 42-year-old mother of two was seen enjoying a romantic dinner date with Rodrigo Santoro – but they were simply filming scenes for their new movie.

The American Idol judge was dressed in a flirty cream dress with cutaway sleeves and a pair of black peep toe boots as she filmed the scene from her new movie What To Expect When You're Expecting.


Good date? The good looking pair looked great together as they acted out a dating scene


Jennifer was seen leaving the restaurant with the 35-year-old Brazillian actor and the good-looking pair appeared to be happy in each other company as the cameras rolled.

The mother-of-two was on set in Atlanta to film her new film, which is concerned with the travails of parenthood when you're not a multimillionaire.

While the singer looked glammed up for the 'date' earlier in the day she had been seen sporting a costume that was not of her own personal style.

In fact, Jenny from the Block donned outfits that we would never witness her showing off on American Idol.


Smiling happy: Jennifer Lopez looked pleased with herself as she exited the date with Rodrigo in the short flirty dress


In one scene, the diva can be seen wearing sweatpants and trainers, though her hair and make-up still look A-List ready.

The outfit looks reassuringly dowdy on the beauty, and allows a glimpse of what the singer's famous derriere looks like out of couture.

Later her character dresses up, but into a hippy-style tie dye dress with matching scarf and trendy clumpy boots, again, not La Lopez' style.

Hold on tight! Selena Gomez enjoys a thrill ride at Universal Studios in a break from her tour

By DAILY MAIL REPORTER

Fun in the sun: Selena Gomez took time out of her busy schedule to enjoy herself at Universal Studios today

Her album is riding high in the U.S. billboard charts and she has just embarked on a series of concerts throughout the U.S.

So it's not surprising that Selena Gomez needed to take some time out for some much needed relaxation today.

The 19-year-old singer and actress was spotted letting her hair down at Universal Studios in Orlando Florida with a group of friends.


Hands up: The singer and her group of friends were clearly enjoying their day out as they slid down a steep water slope


The star had her hands in the air and laughed with delight as she took a ride through the islands of adventure in the popular resort.

With her hair up in a pontytail, the star blended in to the crowd of holidaymakers in a casual beige T-shirt and a pair of flowery shorts.

Her outfit was a far cry from the more glitzy outfits she sported on the first night of her tour.


Waterworks: Selena looks thrilled as she gets soaked on the ride


The 19-year-old singer donned a Vegas showgirl-style sequinned dress for the We Own the Night show, complete with sequinned corseted top and tasselled train.

She also wore some distinctly glamorous blue dresses, one of which featured a blue sequinned top.

But Selena's fans certainly looked happy enough as the singer strutted her stuff on the stage at the Mizner Park Ampitheater and belted out some of her most famous songs.


Blending in: The Disney star looked casual in a pair of floral shorts and beige T-shirt


There was no sign of Selena's boyfriend Justin Bieber today, although he did sneak backstage to watch her perform in Florida the night before.

The superstar also made a surprise appearance during his girlfriend's début concert last week, but preferred to keep a low profile last night as he supported her on tour.

Justin watched from backstage with his friend, singer Sean Kingston, before darting out the back door before he could be spotted by the exuberant audience.

She's arrived! Tiny Cher Lloyd looked elegant in a black minidress suit as she arrived at a studio in south London today on her 18th birthday

Just last week, she hit out at people who criticised her looks, and accused them of being insecure bullies - but Cher Lloyd appears to have found the best way to make her haters eat their words.

The former X Factor contestant who came fourth on last year's show looked extraordinarily elegant and chic in an all-black ensemble as she arrived at a recording studio in London today as she celebrated her 18th birthday.


Looking good: The X Factor star was wearing a tailored jacket over a black dress and gold necklace


The Swagger Jagger singer literally appeared to have grown up overnight, wearing eye-wateringly high Louboutin stilettos with a tailored black jacket over a black minidress and gold necklace.

She'd accessorised with black tights, a pale pink bag - and a massive happy big smile.

The undeniably striking brunette has still got her edgy half shaved haircut too, but the rest looked shiny and healthy, hanging in pretty curls.


Birthday suit: The star was celebrating her 18th birthday with a live webchat and streaming of excerpts of her new album for her fans


She was clearly having a fabulous day of it too, writing on her official Twitter account: 'Thank you all so much for the birthday messages! Big love! Xxxxxx'

Cher had arrived at the south London studio to celebrate her milestone birthday with her fans.


Quirky: Cher's normal more out-there style as seen at the X Factor last year


She was taking part in a live online stream of excerpts of her new album together with a live interview.

Putting up a smokescreen? 'Wholesome' Vanessa Hudgens has a sneaky cigarette on a night out in Hollywood

By DAILY MAIL REPORTER

Smoking hot: Vanessa Hudgens is caught puffing on a cigarette as she and a friend cruise through Hollywood

She's one of Disney's poster girls and has crafted something of a wholesome image due to that role.

But Vanessa Hudgens appears to have a naughty habit that could tarnish that butter-wouldn't-melt image.

The 22-year-old was caught smoking during a drive through Hollywood - and tried to hide the evidence.


Busted: The actress soon ditched the offending cigarette before getting out the car


While cruising down La Cienega and Santa Monica, photographers caught the actress having a puff on a cigarette while in the passenger seat of a companion's car.

However, Vanessa was none too pleased at being caught having a cheeky puff and soon ditched the smoking evidence before jumping out of her car in a loose fitting see-through grey dress and knee-high boots.

It's not the first time Vanessa has seen her image tarnished.


Caught out: Vanessa appears to be rather peeved at being photographed while smoking


Vanessa, who poses with a pair of kittens on the cover of the new issue of America's Glamour magazine, also tells how she gets scared on the red carpet.

She added: 'When I was younger, I used to be super, super shy. I still find myself being scared of things.'

'Going to events gives me such anxiety,' she told the publication.

'I get hot flashes! I can't breathe, and I get claustrophobic. It's a very odd business. I do it because I love acting, but I don't know if I'll ever get used to it.'

Coincidence: Vanessa was pictured leaving a shop yesterday with a large cigarette ad in the background

So she CAN do classy! Rihanna ditches her barely-there outfits for a series of sophisticated dresses

By DAILY MAIL REPORTER

Glamour girl: Rihanna looks chic in a below-the-knee forest green dress with black lace detail

She is becoming well known for her love of barely-there outfits, raunchy dance moves and risqué music videos.

But Rihanna proves she can rock a much classier look in this month's Glamour magazine, where she poses in a series of striking vintage inspired dresses.

In an accompanying interview, the singer admits that she likes to shock with her outrageous choice of outfits.

'I hate drama,' she adds. 'But at the same time, nothing bothers me more than when life’s perfect. And that’s the sick part. I just love a challenge, whether it’s a relationship, my career, clothing…'
